Let it go - Whoever sang that terrible Frozen noise.

Brand New Cadillac - Vince Taylor/The Clash

I've just had a listen and I like it 🙂👍, and yes I did try and click the play button in your screenshot, it's early 🙄😄. With all the conversations about streaming killing music, this is the plus side. Years ago, without some sort of fairly big record deal, nobody in Mexico or Brazil would have heard your music. Genuine question, if this track took off and really did well, generating a decent amount of money, what would happen about the Guns of Brixton quote, royalty wise?

In the Belly of a Shark - Gallows

The Trumpton Riots - Half Man Half Biscuit

Yep, get a bit of paint on it. If the tug bar doesn't get get used there's little chance of it wearing off, and a nice, creamy ivory will look a lot classier than fridge white plastic. I wanted a thumb rest on my Longhorn but didn't want black plastic standing out, so painted it.

I can only apologise in advance... sorry. She Bleeds - EMF

Throwing My Baby Out With The Bathwater - Tenpole Tudor

My biggest issue with lending a bass out isn't even for the safety of my bass, it's for the hygiene of my strings. People do all sorts of nasty things with their hands, I don't want the remnants of their habits ground into the windings of my strings thank you very much. If someone used my bass for a whole gig I'd have to put new strings on afterwards. Every used bass I buy will get new strings for this reason. It may be over the top but there you go, we all have our 'things'.

Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites - Skrillex

If anyone in the West Country (Newton Abbot) is looking. A nice BB235 that just isn't selling. Now £150 https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/624240578937859/

Know Your Rights - The Clash

"Fender are using all the right parts, but not necessarily on the right bass."

Hands Off... She's Mine - The Beat

Dragular - Rob Zombie

Don't Fear The Reaper - Blue Oyster Cult

May I be the first to apologise for using Amazon and indirectly forcing you to work in appalling, victorian workhouse-esque conditions. Here my brother, let me carry that p!ss bottle for you and help shoulder your burden. 😉

Love Potion Number Nine - Tygers of Pan Tang (and The Clovers, The Coasters, etc, but none like the Tygers)

English Rose - The Jam

If they kill off the competition by being cheaper and more efficient, then put all their prices up, do you not think someone else will come along, undercut them and put them out of business?

Last Christmas and Armageddon It would work. It could be released on Def Wham, I mean Jam Records.

Lovely thanks. 🙂 I'm going to leave it I think. I've bought too much lately and need to use what I've got and stop buying. That said I'll probably be back here in a couple of days with a N(BB)BD post. 😂

I've just bought a set of my usual strings through them. D'addario half rounds, well into the £40s from D'addario and some retailers, well into the £30s plus p&p from most retailers, but £26 delivered for free the next day from Amazon. I not sure I believe all the band wagon jumping horror stories of Amazon, sure they're probably not the best employer, but show me any big retailer that is. A forty hour contract is a very rare thing in any supermarket or large retailer these days. Death of the high street blah blah blah, I've never enjoyed having to drive twenty miles to my nearest music shop and pay through the nose for the limited stock of Ernie Ball Slinkys as that's all they had. Or most any other product for that matter, 'going shopping' has held little appeal since being a child with a fistful of Christmas vouchers. When high street shopping became a thing there was probably a load of hand wringing over the death of small independent local shops. It's progress that's all, and if people didn't want it then it wouldn't be happening. Yes I am a miserable old fart well before my time. 😄

It's also a logistical nightmare being 250 miles away. Mrtcat says he gigs all over and could deliver but I bet he doesn't get this far down. I'm going out for a walk to ponder the situation.

The 1024x in the classifieds looks like a great buy. Go get 'em Floyd!
